what is going on here? That last Umar Akmal appeal and Sohaib Maqsood's dismissal were both off no balls. Very poor umpiring in this match so far.

Precisely man. Malinga has been found bowling no balls but umpires have failed to detect that.Small things like thgese can potentially change the outcome of the match. Like in that match against the Windies where tied with them. In that matych, during our innings the Umpire had wrongly deducted one run from our total when he thought Akmal didn't put his bat in the crease when coming for the second.
Umpiring in general has gone down due to the umpires going upstairs after every dismissal, this has resulted in them being careless and not really noticing no balls. I have also seen this happen during the on going ashes series.
It was during the tests in the UAE, when Paul Reiffel failed to call 12 straight no-balls from Irfan. Truly pathetic stuff.I'm sure Pakistan benefited from no-balls not being called recently, can't remember which match.
Either way, no excuse. The line is right in front of the umpire.
We should have robot umpires.
3rd umpire should call the no balls. It would make things easier.
I think in the England Pakistan ODI series in 2016 they trialled that but since then it hasn't been implemented again![]()
